    How a Landmark Verdict Could Reshape Social Media
    Mar 31 2026
    A Los Angeles jury found that Meta and YouTube knowingly created addictive platforms that harmed the mental health of a young woman.

And what can parents learn from this case? Clare is joined by Nicki Petrossi, host of the podcast Scrolling 2 Death, and Sarah Gardner, founder and CEO of the Heat Initiative, to talk about what this verdict could mean for their kids and future generations. Clare also made a video a few months ago walking through safety features and tools for monitoring kids’ social media use. You can find that here.
